Category Health and Science
How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Supply Chain Security100
- No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
- No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
- No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
- No production dependencies, so there is no dependency health to assess. View diagnostics → Pass
Provenance & Transparency97
- Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
- Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to pipeworx-io/mcp-nist-fluid-properties). View diagnostics → Pass
- Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
- Actively maintained (last published 1 days ago).Pass
- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability67
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 568 tokens (~189/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management23
- Stability observed for 7 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
Every change we have recorded for this component, newest first. Security-relevant changes are always shown. ▲ marks a change for the better, ▼ a change for the worse; unmarked changes are neutral.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
nist_fluid_list ~103
List the ~76 fluids NIST's Chemistry WebBook carries full thermophysical property surfaces for (water, nitrogen, oxygen, argon, CO2, light hydrocarbons, refrigerants R11-RC318, and a few industrial gases). Optionally filter by a substring of the name or refrigerant code.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | – | Optional substring filter, e.g. "R1" or "propane". Omit to list all fluids. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
nist_fluid_properties ~203
Density, specific volume, internal energy, enthalpy, entropy, Cv, Cp, speed of sound, Joule-Thomson coefficient, viscosity, thermal conductivity and phase (liquid/vapor/supercritical) for one of NIST's ~76 reference fluids (water, nitrogen, oxygen, argon, CO2, hydrocarbons, refrigerants...) at a given temperature and pressure. Every value carries its unit. Call nist_fluid_list first if unsure a fluid is covered.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| fluid | string | yes | Fluid name, formula or refrigerant code, e.g. "water", "CO2", "R134a", "nitrogen". |
| pressure | number | yes | Pressure at which to evaluate properties. |
| pressure_unit | string | – | Unit of `pressure`. Default "atm". |
| temperature | number | yes | Temperature at which to evaluate properties. |
| temperature_unit | string | – | Unit of `temperature`. Default "C". |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
nist_fluid_saturation ~206
Liquid/vapor saturation (phase-boundary) properties for one of NIST's ~76 reference fluids — give EITHER a saturation temperature (returns the matching saturation pressure, e.g. boiling point at 1 atm) OR a saturation pressure (returns the matching saturation temperature), plus density, enthalpy, entropy, viscosity, thermal conductivity and surface tension on both the liquid and vapor side of the boundary. Do not pass both temperature and pressure.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| fluid | string | yes | Fluid name, formula or refrigerant code, e.g. "water", "propane", "R134a". |
| pressure | number | – | Saturation pressure to evaluate. Omit if passing `temperature` instead. |

What is the Nist Fluid Properties MCP server?
Nist Fluid Properties is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.pipeworx-io/nist-fluid-properties. NIST Chemistry WebBook, Thermophysical Properties of Fluid Systems. This page covers its npm package (@pipeworx/mcp-nist-fluid-properties).
Is the Nist Fluid Properties MCP server safe to use?
Nist Fluid Properties scores 83 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.
What tools does the Nist Fluid Properties MCP server expose?
Nist Fluid Properties exposes 3 tools: nist_fluid_properties, nist_fluid_saturation, nist_fluid_list. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 512 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Is the Nist Fluid Properties MCP server still maintained?
Nist Fluid Properties is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
What licence is the Nist Fluid Properties MCP server under?
Nist Fluid Properties declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
